Got my new Wheels on

I'm a bit mentally deficient as far as spatial awareness is concerned, so not good at telling whether it has been lowered. Here are a couple of pics, plus one of the inside of the front wheel arch. I don't think the shocks have gone since if I lean on a corner (with my modest 100kg weight) it returns to position quite neatly without more than a small upward bounce over neutral (say 6 inches at most).

These photos are with 16 inch wheels on it for my winter tyres. But same rolling radius as the 18 inch wheels it came with.

Hmm can't say that it looks like it's been lowered to be honest....

This is a similar pic to yours, with my standard wheels on (18's) and the arch gap looks about the same as yours??

Not lowered IMHO

I must have chosen a couple of very aggressive bumps to drive over then. I've only been driving the car for 3 weeks and I live in the countryside so my sample size (of bumps) is pretty small at the moment. I didn't enjoy the scraping noises very much though!

99% sure that is standard ride, love your winter wheels by the way. :thumbup:

I'd agree with the others here, that looks like stock ride height to me (love the look with the dark winters btw!).

If you're scraping with the car at that height it will just be due to "bounce" ie take the bump slower and you'll be fine.

Not lowered IMHO
